Spending problem?

Ken Blackwell and his gang of tax-raising Republican friends at the Statehouse want you to believe Ohio has a spending problem. These tax and spend Republicans think voters will choose Blackwell's TEL Amendment if enough people start to believe their theory.

But after viewing the latest from The Buckeye Institute for Public Policy Solutions (view report here) it's clear Republicans can't blame Democrats, they only have themselves to blame- because the ratio of spending to inflation is larger under Taft and Voinovich than it was under Celeste. It becomes clear that Ohio has a REPUBLICAN problem.
